White Industries
VBC Mountain
Crankset

Product Description

Our VBC, variable bolt circle, mountain crankset is unique and a bit unconventional in that we offer our mountain crankset as a double rather than a triple. One issue with a traditional triple is there tends to be a lot of unnecessary gear overlap. With the VBC mountain crank we have eliminated one ring, made the system a little cleaner and less complex while still giving the rider a suitable gearing solution for off road use. We offer a wide range of gearing options and the rings can be mixed and matched to meet your needs.

Running a 2x9 with WI VBC crankset. Ive had no issues with shifting which was one concern I had. VBC chain rings have held up to numerous beatings. Ive always liked white industries for a number of reasons, unique look and setup.
They also have great customer service. purchased the crank arms privately and ordered the chain rings and bolts through WI. Functionality and looks are an A+ along with their service. Only downside can be the price.
